A four-year-old British boy caught up in the Kenya mall massacre showed astonishing bravery by confronting a marauding gunman who ended up begging for his forgiveness, it emerged today.
Elliot Prior, from Windsor, Berkshire, told one of the terrorists that he was a ‘very bad man’ as he protected his mother, Amber, who had been shot in the leg, and six-year-old sister Amelie.
Incredibly, the attacker took pity on the family and bizarrely handed the children Mars bars before telling them ‘Please forgive me, we are not monsters.’
His story emerged as sporadic gunfire continued to ring out from inside the mall early today as Kenyan security forces battled Al Qaeda-linked terrorists into a fourth day.
Despite Kenyan police assurances that they had taken control of the building, a security expert with contacts inside the mall said at least 10 hostages were still being held by a band of attackers, possibly as many as 13.
Kenya’s foreign minister Amina Mohamed said ’two or three’ Americans and one British woman were among those who attacked the Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi.
His mother, Amber, told of her family’s terrifying escape from Al Shabaab terrorists who butchered 62 people in the Nairobi shopping centre.
The film producer had been queuing to buy milk in Nairobi’s Westgate Shopping Centre when the militants struck.
She hid under a cold meat counter in the Nakumatt supermarket for an hour-and-a-half with her children beneath her before terrorists finally found them and shot her in the thigh.

Elliot’s uncle, Alex Coutts, told The Sun: ‘They had a lucky escape. The terrorists said if any of the kids were alive in the supermarket they could leave. ‘Amber made the decision to stand up and say “yes”.’
‘Then Elliot started arguing with them and called them bad men. He was very brave.’
After discovering the advertising producer was of French origin, the men began to plead with her and claimed that the Muslim faith ‘was not a bad one’.‘He told me I had to change my religion to Islam and said “do you forgive us? Do you forgive us?’, the mother told The Independent.
‘Naturally, I was going to say whatever they wanted and they let us go’.


Bizarrely, the terrorists handed the children Mars bars before they fled with two other children, including a 12-year-old boy who had at first refused to leave his dead mother.
The fate of 20 others who had taken refuge under the meat counter is unknown.
The family’s escape is particularly astonishing in light of the indiscriminate slaughter of men, women and children throughout the mall after Al Shabaab launched their assault on Saturday.

Amazing courage: Four-year-old Elliot Prior and his sister Amelie hold Mars bars next to a dead body outside the Westgate shopping centre in Nairobi after being given the chocolate by a gunman who spared their lives

Horror: Their mother, Amber, walks past the body of a man as they escape the Westgate shopping centre

They should get the Bleep outta Africa!

Allahu Akbar. May God judge all theses animals perpetrating evil in the name of our religion of peace.
And why are they alone, where are the security agents?

The world turning against itself, so so sad. I cant stop wondering what benefits are derivable by these sadists!

Religion that supports the killing of innocent pple...God havw mercy

david vs goliath. He dat is in d boy is greater than the devil dat is in the virgin hunter.

You'll need to re-write the qu'ran to convince us these people aren't acting in line with the prophet's (SAW) instructions!

Security agents? Many were still being held in the Mall at the time those pix were taken, Security agents will be busying trying to rescue others.

Baba_Eleko: Allahu Akbar. May God judge all theses animals perpetrating evil in the name of our religion of peace.
And why are they alone, where are the security agents?

Perhaps they had just been let go in the picture. Moreover there are only so many security agents.

As usual, white race is always the hero anywhere bad things are happening.

On the last day when the earth start to roll up and the stars and meteorites are raining down on the people of the earth, expect a white person to be the saviour.

Oh my, what shall we do without our white savior?

sounds like what a terrorist would say

That's bold & brave of that lil-boi.

With the introduction of holy s8x by tunisia muslim women in syria, even the so called good muslims will be contemplating becoming terrorists.

I disagree
they are monsters
blood sucking monsters

awww and innocence prevailed

Wow... Impressive.

Wat courage from a small boy... How many of u can try that?

Watch out for dat four year old boy, he is gonna be prominent in his time

The power in an innocent Voice.
An innocent bravery that can melt a wicked & devilish heart of a terrorist.

Lol... True words Bro.

Something is not right here. The report says the mother was shot in the thigh yet the woman was seen walking unhurt after they were spared as indicated by the pix. If the woman in that pix is actually their mother then I think the report was wrong.

Adeniyi3840: Wat courage from a small boy... How many of u can try that?

What does a 4 year old boy know? Ofcourse, as an adult I won't try that because I'm wiser enough to know that it will be foolhardy to provoke a terrorist who derive joy and won't hesitate in killing people in the name of their religion. And for those who think that boy will grow up to be brave, please, it doesn't follow. Most people change in behaviour and how they see life as they grow older.

Take a good look at the right thigh & her footwear... I see something like blood stain.

The language in which you wrote this originated from "white" people. The device you used to type your post was invented and manufactured by white people. The 'eco-system' of the internet that made it possible for us to be having this virtual cyber-communication was invented and is maintained by white people. The education you had that "exposed" and "enlightened" you to modernity was fashioned by white people. The vehicles, wrist watches, phones, electricity (and its uncountable bye-products), etc plus 1 million other things that define modern life (including the very concept of religion itself) - that you take for granted in your daily life were ALL made possible by white people.

Heck, if there is a "saviour", then it is not far-fetched to assume that he is "white"! Let's get real and stop fooling ourselves.
